How to understand cat body language:

1. Cats meow mainly to attract other people’s attention. If the meow is short and high-pitched, it means the cat is looking for its owner in the house. If the meowing sound is long and loud, it means the cat wants to open a window or eat something. Cats will make angry screams if they are kept in a travel basket or if their tail is stepped on.

2. The cat’s body language is shown through its posture. The cat will completely relax and squint its eyes, stretch its limbs and keep waving its paws. At this time, the owner goes forward and scratches it gently, and the cat will lie on the ground with its legs in the air and let you continue to scratch it. Sometimes it stomps and purrs when satisfied.

3. Cats express their emotions through their ears. Cats will twitch their ears when they are on alert, when hunting outside, or when they hear an interesting sound. Cats may twitch their ears when they are stressed. When a cat is scared or angry, it will put its ears safely to the back of its head. Cats sometimes bar their teeth and hiss, arch their backs, and stand up their fur to threaten intruders.

4. Judge the cat’s mood by its tail. When a cat comes running to welcome its owner, it will raise its tail and wag it back and forth. A cat will be very happy if you gently scratch its tail when it is relaxed. If the cat's tail twitches violently, this is a sign that the cat is being irritated, and if the tail lashes back, the owner should leave.
